Do not force justified text alignment

Justified text alignment is often unsuitable for screen reading, as variations in font size, typeface, and line width can create large gaps between words (rivers). Users should be able to control alignment, which is a feature supported by most modern reading systems.

Objectives

  • Improve flexibility and customization of the user experience.
  • Improve readability, particularly for users with dyslexia.

Implementation

  • Do not use the CSS property text-align: justify or any equivalent.

Control

  • Check the CSS code for the absence of text-align: justify rules.
  • Check the HTML code for the absence of align="justify" attributes.

Validation

  • Needs to be verified by a human.
